As your therapist, I can provide you with a safe and comfortable space for approaching challenges and developing creative solutions. I will become your guide as you work your way out of feeling "stuck" within situations or thoughts that may have become too difficult to manage. I use an eclectic treatment approach that combines action-oriented and reflective techniques based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Mindfulness practices. As an Expressive Arts Therapist, I also offer various opportunities for engaging in such therapeutic activities as art, music, and creative writing.These methods can sometimes empower you to explore ideas and feelings that may be initially too difficult to express in words. As the former director of a college/career access program at non-profit arts organization, I offer 10+ years of experience in college admissions counseling. I have often used expressive arts and assertiveness training techniques to help ease any anxieties associated with the college and/or employment application process.
